Music for Motoring
Great tunes for a day in the country 'In England's Green and Pleasant Land' - the closing words to William Blake's fervent poem familiar to millions of us, in its choral setting by Hubert Parry, as a stalwart of 'The Last Night of the Proms'. Can there be anything more satisfying and descriptive? With a modicum of words, our heritage and tradition reveal themselves so totally. We perhaps take for granted our green and pleasant land. We certainly have more access to it than ever before and organisations such as the National Trust are preserving gardens and houses and of course the countryside itself. Fifty years ago and more, a day in the country was a different matter. A chosen spot was invariably reached by train, and a steam driven one at that. Cars were almost the exception rather than the rule and motorways had not reached the drawing boards. Their slower relations, the A and B roads, were the means by which we got there. Because o, and in spite of this, it was a more leisurely time. Browsing through the magazines of the time, the adverts proclaim, uniformly, the joys and delights of driving. There seems to be an almost innocent sense of abandon. How quaint it all looks now!
